Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I’ve rehearsed this in my head

Every word I never said

Bit my tongue until it bled

Smiled like I believed it

Kept my name off every line

Sat in corners

Kept in time

Let the fear redraw my spine

Shrank so I could keep you quiet

[Pre-Chorus]

But there’s a tremor in my hands now

Yeah

I can feel it

All the silence that I swallowed

I’m done

I’m done with it

[Chorus]

This is the day I stop running

Feet on the ground

Heart like a drum that keeps coming

Louder than doubt

I’m gonna stand where I’m shaking

Right in the sound

This is the choice that I’m making

I won’t back down

This is the day I stop running

I’m standing now

[Verse 2]

Every “sorry” on my lips

Was a chain around my wrists

Every room I tried to fit

Left me smaller in the mirror

All the times I let it slide

Let the hurt just pass me by

Now the anger and the pride

Are a fire in my ribcage

Clearer

[Pre-Chorus]

I hear my heartbeat in the hallway

Calling my name

All the times I almost spoke up

Burn in my veins

[Chorus]

This is the day I stop running

Feet on the ground

Heart like a drum that keeps coming

Louder than doubt

I’m gonna stand where I’m shaking

Right in the sound

This is the choice that I’m making

I won’t back down

This is the day I stop running

I’m standing now

[Bridge]

I was scared of the breaking

Scared of the fall

But losing myself

Was the worst loss of all

So here in the open

I’m drawing the line

If I stand here alone

At least the voice is mine (oh, it’s mine)

[Chorus]

This is the day I stop running

Feet on the ground

Heart like a drum that keeps coming

Louder than doubt

I’m gonna stand where I’m shaking

Right in the sound

This is the choice that I’m making

I won’t back down

This is the day I stop running

I’m standing now
